research The importance of basonuclin 2 in adult mice and its relation to basonuclin 1
Basonuclin 2 is vital for the development of facial bones, hair follicles, and male germ cells in adult mice, and its absence can lead to dwarfism and abnormal follicles.
research Iron Metabolism of the Skin: Recycling versus Release
Iron is crucial for skin health, with specific proteins recycling it to support skin functions and prevent its release.
research Anatomical Mapping and Density of Merkel Cells in Skin and Mucosae of the Dog
Dogs have varying numbers of touch-sensitive Merkel cells in different skin areas, with most in the oral mucosa and facial skin, unrelated to age, sex, breed, or color.
research Fibroblast Growth Factor-7 and Hair Biology: Bridging Basic Science and Therapeutic Applications
FGF-7 helps hair grow by activating hair follicles and is a promising target for hair loss treatments.
research A decade of neglecting sublingual mass: A case report of epidermoid cyst
A man had a large, rare cyst in his mouth removed after 10 years, which fixed his swallowing and breathing problems.
research The development of oral hairy leukoplakia during JAK inhibitor baricitinib therapy
A man developed oral hairy leukoplakia while on baricitinib, a medication for alopecia and arthritis, and doctors should watch for such side effects.
research ES Cell Differentiation Into the Hair Follicle Lineage In Vitro
ES cells can be turned into hair follicle cells in a lab setting.
research Identification of reptilian genes encoding hair keratin-like proteins suggests a new scenario for the evolutionary origin of hair
Reptiles have genes similar to hair proteins, suggesting hair's genetic origins predate mammals.
research Novel Type I Hair Keratins K39 and K40 Are the Last to be Expressed in Differentiation of the Hair: Completion of the Human Hair Keratin Catalog
K39 and K40 are the last keratins expressed in hair development, completing the hair keratin catalog.
research Variation in the ovine trichohyalin gene and its association with wool curvature
Variation in the TCHH gene affects wool curliness in sheep.
research Different Ligands of the TRPV3 Cation Channel Cause Distinct Conformational Changes as Revealed by Intrinsic Tryptophan Fluorescence Quenching
Different ligands change the shape of the TRPV3 ion channel in unique ways.
research De novo filament formation by human hair keratins K85 and K35 follows a filament development pattern distinct from cytokeratin filament networks
Human hair keratins K85 and K35 create unique filament patterns important for early hair formation.
research Drug-associated gingival disorders: a retrospective pharmacovigilance assessment using disproportionality analysis
Certain medications can cause gum problems, so patients and healthcare providers should be aware and monitor oral health.
research A Novel Mouse Type I Intermediate Filament Gene, Keratin 17n (K17n), Exhibits Preferred Expression in Nail Tissue
A new mouse gene, Keratin 17n, is mainly found in nail tissue and may explain why mice without Keratin 17 don't have nail issues.
research Hair keratin pattern in human hair follicles grown in vitro
Human hair follicles grown in vitro maintain normal keratin patterns and structure.
research Synthesis of porcine pCLCA2 protein during late differentiation of keratinocytes of epidermis and hair follicle inner root sheath
pCLCA2 protein may help maintain skin structure and function.
research Keratin expression in the human hair follicle
research Characterization of a First Domain of Human High Glycine-Tyrosine and High Sulfur Keratin-associated Protein (KAP) Genes on Chromosome 21q22.1
Researchers mapped and categorized specific keratin-associated protein genes on human chromosome 21q22.1.
research Cell death by cornification
Cornification is how skin cells die to form the protective outer layer of skin, hair, and nails.
research Sox2-positive dermal papilla cells specify hair follicle type in mammalian epidermis
Sox2-positive cells determine specific hair follicle types in mammals.
research Sebum Free Fatty Acids Enhance the Innate Immune Defense of Human Sebocytes by Upregulating β-Defensin-2 Expression
Free fatty acids in sebum boost skin's defense against acne by increasing antimicrobial peptides.
research Impaired wound healing in transgenic mice overexpressing the activin antagonist follistatin in the epidermis
Overexpressing follistatin in mice delays wound healing and reduces scar size.
research Foxn1 in Skin Development, Homeostasis and Wound Healing
Foxn1 is crucial for skin development and healing, and altering its expression may aid regenerative medicine.
research Total Facelift: Forehead Lift, Midface Lift, and Neck Lift
Facelifts for Asians are challenging due to thicker, heavier skin.
research Immunolocalization of Scaffoldin, a Trichohyalin‐Like Protein, in the Epidermis of the Chicken Embryo
Scaffoldin helps form hard skin structures in chicken embryos.
research Mice lacking the epidermal retinol dehydrogenases SDR16C5 and SDR16C6 display accelerated hair growth and enlarged meibomian glands
Mice without certain skin enzymes have faster hair growth and bigger eye glands.
research Nrf2-Mediated Expansion of Pilosebaceous Cells Accelerates Cutaneous Wound Healing
Activating Nrf2 in skin cells speeds up wound healing by increasing the growth of certain stem cells.
research Adult Kawasaki's disease with myocarditis, splenomegaly, and highly elevated serum ferritin levels
Kawasaki's disease can occur in adults and should be considered with specific symptoms and high ferritin levels.
research Hair follicle stem cell progeny heal blisters while pausing skin development
When skin blisters, healing the wound is more important than growing hair, and certain stem cells mainly fix the blisters without helping hair growth.
